BARTER by MARIE BLAKE

First Line: I WILL EXCHANGE A CITY FOR A SUNSET
Last Line: FOR ONE FAR SUMMIT, BLUE AGAINST THE SKY.
Subject(s): NATURE;
I will exchange a city for a sunset,
The tramp of legions for a wind's wild cry;
And all the braggart thrusts of steel triumphant
For one far summit, blue against the sky.
